      Add a small amount of ammonia to the sawdust. Ammonia will help lighten the stain, whereas the sawdust will absorb the liquid.

    • 2

      Spread the sawdust across the carpet. This is known as a dry compound.
      The sawdust can sometimes be ground up corn cobs that have been turned into a dust solely for the purpose of carpet cleaning.

    • 3

      Use the sawdust brushing machine to force the sawdust deep into the carpet. The machine will push the sawdust through the carpet fibers. The sawdust will then soak up as much liquid as it can.

    • 4

      Allow the sawdust to sit on the liquid for a while until it is completely moist.

    • 5

      Let it dry completely before vacuuming. You do not want to vacuum up liquids or moist elements into a regular vacuum cleaner since it is not made for that.
